Supplemental O2 and children

My boys have never had problems with the O2. My youngest usually trys
to avoid using it. The reason to have them wear O2 is to prevent head
aches, etc. However, most people just fall asleep, so its not an issue.

The cool thing is that its easy to calculate kids O2. Their canualas
are regular (not oxy-savers) so they use twice as much O2. However,
their bodys are smaller so they use 1/2 the O2. It all equals out in
the end, I just set the system to give them the same amount of O2 I'm
using. If they start to bug each other, I just turn their O2 down and
they fall asleep. I've talked to C-5 drivers that do the same when
Marines are sitting in the back.

So do commercial airline pilots, or they did a couple decades ago.

My dad was on a redeye to Germany, and trying to get some paperwork done,
and started getting sleepy. He had some very sensitive air pressure
measuring equipment, used in his line of work, and found they had raised the
cabin altitude, quite a bit. He told a stew to tell the captain to turn the
pressure back up; long to short, she said he didn't, he insisted, and
strangely enough, the pressure went back to normal.
